Although you wouldn't know it if you get your news from Los Angeles' mainstream media, there *is* a primary election this March 5th.
Besides choosing our next Mayor, Angelenos will also be choosing who'll represent them on the City Council. Here in CD11, that means choosing between Mike Bonin, Odysseus Bostick, Tina Hess and Fred Sutton to represent us when Bill Rosendahl retires in June.
So far there are three candidate debates scheduled to help give you the information you'll need to make up your minds.
